I think you meant that Harry Bluetooth was king of Denmark and Norway from 958 – 986 AD, not “from 1958 to 1986”. 😂 In those years, it was Harry Bluetooth the XXXVII who was King of IKEA (jk).

Bluetooth has been a lifesaver. I selected Phonak due to Bluetooth connectivity features. It does drain batteries though and I can’t make it through my waking hours without having to put my devices back in the charger to get through my day. I can’t wait until i have devices with Bluetooth LE audio to have the additional benefits you mentioned in today’s video.

Thanks again for a great lesson. I look forward to all hearing aid manufacturers utilizing LE Audio. Especially, if it would allow me to simultaneously connect to my iPhone and iPad. Right now I have Phonak aids for that reason, but would love to see other manufacturers do the same.

Hopefully we'll start seeing LE Audio adapters coming onto the market soon. I'd hate having to spend yet another $1000 to a new LE Audio compatible phone or tablet.

Damn, those Norwegian kings were dressing pretty hardcore in 1986

When will Apple switch the iPhone to LE Audio. I’ve got the Nexia aids and am waiting for Apple to apply the new codec so that I can take advantage of LE Audio. What phones were you able to test on in your trials?

The text on the video was correct, but you may have misread it in the voiceover. Bluetooth is not "shortwave" but it is "short range". Conversely the shortwave band of the radio spectrum, typically between 1.6 and 30 MHz, and is used for long-distance communication.

Have the Resound Nexia problems with BT LE Audio on Samsung Galaxy S23 and S24 devices been fixed yet?

Bluetooth multi-stream audio should also make Bluetooth headphones way nicer in video games with voice chat, switching between music and Teams/Zoom meetings, and even switching between phone+computer audio. Because it'll let you have not just separate audio streams to each earbud independently, but also separate microphone streams from each earbud and separately. No longer need to constantly switch modes between mic+mono audio for video chats and stereo audio for music.

Thanks for the information. I will be up dating my hearing aids and will be ready for this.

Thanks for a great technical explanation of Bluetooth le audio. I just got a pair of Phonak hearing aids for the Bluetooth Classic but my battery drains before the day is out. I am seriously discussing changing back to Oticon. I would get the Intent 1. I especially like the idea of BT le audio. Can you recommend any le audio transmitters for use with a Mac computer. I already have the Oticon tv streamer 3 for my tv and would like to leave it connected. Thanks so much. Paul

Great info but Bluetooth was around till 986 AD, not 1986 I know it was old but I didn't think it was that old. Just purchase a set of hearing aids with Bluetooth LE I'm looking forward to it again thanks

I have a soundbar on my TV but to stream to my ha's I have to have a tv adapter.
I would love to eliminate the need for the tv adapter for my Intent ha's but don't know how.
Is this doable? How?

My church has Telecoil. I spoke with them months ago, but we can't find any information for required equipment for setting Auracast up. I have Resound hearing aids, which I got so I could use the system. Any ideas what do next?

[taranagnew]

whith le audio, can you use your phone to select the broadcast you want, if so, can you link a demo of it working/switching broadcasts?

[catherinerogers]

Will this allow hearing aids to connect to other Bluetooth enabled devices without a manufacturer accessory? Like tv box?

[BertP]

I wonder if my Iphone 15 is compatable with this new Bluetooth LE Audio?

[pugsley]

LE sounds great re range but do the new hearing aids have better sound than my AirPods? I stream to my AirPods bc the sound quality is far superior to my hearing aids.

[dahorsefarm]

I'm looking for Bluetooth transmitters with Bluetooth LE Audio and can not find any for sale in the US. Can someone HELP!
